Mazda MX-3s; does anyone know anything about them?

[waxer]

My brother is thinking of buying an MX-3 as a daily driver to complement his weekend RX-7.
I'm not sure how practical it would be. He sent me this link;

From which I gather it may be quite thirsty, and parts might be a bit pricey; or maybe not.
Has anyone run one?

I haven't run one but being a Mazda technician I have worked on alot of them!

Yes you are correct in saying that they are thirsty.

In NZ they parts are not that expensive but they can be a little tricky to work on due to lack of space under the bonnet.

What else you want to know?

my mate had a 323 v6..geting parts was hard..engine bay is mega cramped. can;t be chipped , its powerful but a thirsty car for its size
